That women prefer tall men is nothing new. But do you know why? A new study delving into the women psychology reveals that ladies prefer statuesque men not because they have height, but because they have better fighting capabilities.
In evolutionary terms, tall men have a upper hand over their shorter counterparts as “blows of a taller man are more powerful than the thumps of a short man,” the Daily Mail reports.
Professor David Carrier, from the University of Utah, who led the research, said in a press release, “From the perspective of sexual selection theory, women are attracted to powerful males, not because powerful males can beat them up, but because powerful males can protect them and their children from other males.
